The MGA Academy of Performing Arts (MGA) is a centre of excellence providing training, support and promotion for young performers in Edinburgh. An Academy with one aim - a professional performing arts career for every graduate. In 2005 Murray Grant and Andrew Gowland began running workshops in acting, singing, dance and musical theatre in Edinburgh and the surrounding area.
MGA accepts applications for full-time professional training all year round, until course places are full - so the earlier in the year you apply, the more places will be available. There's no need to wait to audition, simply apply below today! We have adapted our application process to this time of change: all auditions are in video format and all files are now submitted online.
The MGA Academy of Performing Arts is based across two building complexes in the beautiful city of Edinburgh. High-quality studio spaces (including dedicated music and acting rooms) equipped with Clavinovas and state-of-the-art sound systems. MGA also has relationships with other rehearsal spaces in the city that support the specific needs of our training programmes.
Since its formation in 2005, The MGA Academy of Performing Arts has developed into one of the UK's leading lights in the fields of innovative student training and professional-level networking. MGA is thrilled to partner with Bath Spa University from 2018 to offer degree programmes through our Full-time School.

My daughter (16) took part in the Commercial dance video week in October. It was an amazing week for her. She came away so inspired by the choreographers and teachers and the end result is something everyone involved should be proud of. She learned so much, made new friends and felt like a professional dance artiste for the week. It’s an experience she’ll never forget. Thank you, MGA. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Murray and Andrew are just the best! Through sheer passion for what they do, they started MGA from nothing and now it’s a huge success. The teachers here are amazing. The ‘feel’ of the place is amazing. They are also constantly letting their students work with the best talents from broadway and around the world to ensure the highest quality training! This is the place to go!

The best training you will ever receive here in Edinburgh, I have never been more proud, more privileged to have been trained here. Each and every tutor know's the profession because they are either in it or have been. Top Class Training here in Edinburgh. If you want to be trained professionaly and you can't afford to train in London, this academy is the place to be.
